Brexit: Could this be the final week of UK-EU trade talks

And please also check out the recently published videos on our new YouTube channel, Central Broadcast UK, link in the descriptions box below.

There is talk out there that this will be the last full week of UK-EU trade talks and if there's no budging by Brussels, then Boris Johnson is going to call the whole thing off.

Sadly, heard that one before.

The reports coming out of Number Ten yesterday indicated that a no-deal Brexit 'is arguably under-priced.' With significant gaps still existing on the subject of fisheries - surprise, surprise.

And ITV News reports today that a weekend of Brexit negotiations in London between a recently released from isolation Michel Barnier and the UK's Lord David Frost have ended without agreement.

"When asked if negotiators had got any closer to reaching an agreement on fishing rights - one of the major sticking points in talks - while leaving for the night just before 10pm, the EU's chief negotiator Michel Barnier simply replied: "Poisson."

"He did not answer questions about whether a deal would be reached in time for the UK's exit from the bloc at the end of the year."

Said the ITV News report.

But while all the attention more and more focuses on the issue of fishing quotas, we must remember that there are said to be about 600 pages of agreement, all of which is just about signed off.

And most of us have no clue as to what's in there.

And to be ready in time for the 1st of January that deal will have to sail through both houses of parliament probably with a statute attached to it to enable it to happen on time.

And like the 600 pages, that piece of legislation will also be mostly signed off.

Remember that our MPs and Lords are all due to pack up shop at the close of play on Thursday the 17th of December - that's only 11 sitting days from now.

And the big question on the lips of Brexiteers is, are we about to see parliament bounced into agreeing a deal without sufficient scrutiny, all on the back of public razzmatazz over a fishing waters victory?

Now, it occurred to me, that all the furore and theatre over the clauses in the UK Internal Market Bill, which subsequently got voted down in the House of Lords, seems to have abated to nothing. The whole of that debate has disappeared.

Remember, that in the event of a no-deal scenario, the UK needs that Bill to run a cohesive internal UK market.

So, where's the rush, where's the push to get the Lords to deal with it?

Also, the future business diary of the House of Commons looks ominously empty in the run-up to Christmas. Almost as if it's about to be stacked with new work.

But there has, as yet, been no talk about the UK and EU negotiators entering the famed 'tunnel'. Where the deal is finalised under wraps. Before being presented to the UK and EU27 for ratification.

So, we'll just have to keep our eyes on it - and remember that where Brexit is concerned, there's always another deadline date.

But the Irish foreign minister, Simon Coveney, doesn't like this deadline stuff.

He's blamed the UK for not allowing the Brexit talks to be extended, so it's our fault that everything's been pushed to the wire.

"They were very clear that they didn't want any more time despite the fact the EU was asking them to ask for it. The decision on the timelines is very much a British Government decision, not an EU one." He said.

And we read today that the Flemish minister Hilde Crevits warned:

"The fisheries sector in Flanders is a small but important sector. It is very important that access to British waters is maintained in the future and that the current quota system is also maintained."

They keep on about it don't they?

Now, one piece of Brexit news that seems to have got the Remainer/Rejoiner types in a bit of a lather is that after January the 1st, UK citizens will be limited to 3 months inside the Schengen zone in every six months.

Or more accurately 90 days in any 180 days.

At the beginning of last month, the UK ambassador to the World Trade Organisation, or WTO, Julian Braithewaite issued a statement:

"I would like to thank all Parties here in the World Trade Organization's Committee on Government Procurement for the adoption, today, of the Decision on the Accession of the United Kingdom to the Government Procurement Agreement in its Own Right....
